Okay so my specs are down below.
I have overclocked to 2.7 easily, and during this overclocking testing the Voltage never passed 1.448V
I have a 420W psu.. is that the problem?
i checked CLockgen and under max it says 1.450V i put it to 1.55 with bios, and with clockgen, and it goes back to 1.400V

Solve my problem fellas

Well I, for one, fail to see a clearly presented problem. What exactly do you need help with?
And please be patient, common etiquette is to wait 6 hours or so before bumping your own thread.

Yeah what is your problem??? Those 90nm's don't get much higher than that on stock cooling.
 
umm stock cooling?
my specs below.

i want to know why my voltages don't go higher than 1.4..
nvm i am gonna just ask this in other forums. :mad:
 
I don't think there really is any need for being so angry and impatient. I understand that you feel you have a problem and would like to find an answer to it but resulting in anger will only result in less people being sympathetic to your problems.

With that said,

I have the same board and noticed that same problem. I also assumed that it was because my 465w Enermax (which is actually really claimed a 430w) was being sucked dry by everything I have in my case including cathode lights, tons of fans, and several hard drives. I went ahead and bought a 650 enermax which is there 550w but it has not been delivered yet. If that makes any difference with the voltage being reported than I will let you know.

That board does report .1v lower than is actually being supplied so if in bios you have it set for 1.5v than it is actually getting 1.4v which is what it is rated for. So in order to overclock for my winnie to get to 2500 which is no where near yours I set it to 1.5v plus 3%. I wouldn't mind giving it more if I thought it would help but I don't think that my 0451 week winnie will give much more than that. Good luck with your situation and I will let you know if the new PS offers any difference.


 
Ok,

Got my new powersupply in and I think there really wasn't a problem after all. I believe it was just the bios settings that actually underclock the voltage.


 
ok thanks for repling, i was angry because i think i made my explanation perfectly clear, and what i get is someone telling me i can't bump it.. i think its mod's job to tell me when i broke a rule

I am a mod :D The bump time isn't an official rule, but patience is a virtue (one that I admit to not having).
 
Probably the motherboard is just undervolting. My A7N8X-E Deluxe overvolts like mad.... I put in 1.575, and it's at 1.648... just can't get any lower.
